Timothy Thornton

Timothy spoke to his mother as if his plan could save the starving.

However, at what Timothy said, Christen perked up, an eyebrow rose, and eyes blazed with curiosity about where this was going. She stopped her fussings in front of the mirror and listened.

Realizing that he had gotten his mother's attention, Timothy explained that if she wanted to get a divorce, she could do so. Thinking about his parent's relationship, he felt like it should not come as a surprise to his father if his mother suddenly one day decided to get a divorce.

There were no red flags to raise. So, Timothy believed his mother could smoothly get a divorce, and he was confident his father would ensure she would be cared for, for life.

Then, whispered that when she was far away, maybe after a month or two, she could destroy the evidence. Timothy had pointed to the side of the manor in question.

    Aubrianne Ivanov Aubrianne was simply trying to get away from spending intimate time with Daniel. He had offered to keep her company till she fell asleep tonight. He would sneak out after, but she quickly refused. When Daniel's heart squeezed in his chest, she brushed him off. He knew a brush-off. He had done it so many times with Jenna alone. But it was ok; maybe the anxiety about tomorrow was getting to her. Reaching to grab her hands. "Hey, tomorrow will be fine, besides I will be with you every step of the way." He brought the back of her palms to his lips and kissed it, then squeezed her hand comfortably as he placed it back on her thigh where he held it. And Aubrianne turned to look into his eyes and smiled; yeah, let's go with that, she thought. Ever grateful that he would still be by her side, she thanked him. Aubrianne stirred, and her eyelids fluttered open. She stretched her body, sat up, paused, and listened tentatively to the buzzing. Noise from all the hustling and

    Aubrianne Ivanov Aubrianne stood by the door staring at her father's receding back as he disappeared through the front door of her wing and wondered what he was thinking and that he looked in real good spirits today. Of course, Aubrianne hoped for many things in her mate, and the top of her list was that he did not have a great love, but as for him, being from a weak community or a poor community was the least of her worries. She honestly did not care about those things. She wanted to be loved, wanted, and cherished. When she was snatched out of her reverie by a squealing Jada, who dashed out of her room when she observed Aubrianne's dad leave. Jada had just returned home from her night out, as Ivan had some things to take care of before the ball, so no staying in bed late for her this morning. Meanwhile, Alpha Zayne Steele On his way to the Ball in Transcendent Lotharios... Alpha Zayne and Delta Rafael boarded their flight and made it to Transcendant Lotharios in one piece. T

    Alpha Theodore Thornton - A few hours earlier. Suddenly Alpha Theodore Claude Thornton felt like a new man. He had finally made the right decision. Deep down inside, this was the right move. He just knew it. He was ready to face the marriage he felt trapped in. Since he finally made the judgment, he had felt so much lighter. His mind was no longer heavy. Now that he was ready for a divorce, he felt happy for the first time in years. He felt like an anchor was removed from shackling him down. And today was his baby girl's day. Theo was overjoyed and proud. His baby girl was about to make her debut in his society. So he will announce this next week. He wanted this weekend to go by smoothly. His guests leave on Sunday evening. The bottom line, he was not happy in his marriage, and it was unfair to have Christen here, stringing her along. Having her wait for something that would have happened by now if it were ever to happen. Their kids are grown now. His father, James, was no long

    Alpha Zayne Steele Back at the Airport In the room, they kept Alpha Zayne and Delta Rafael. It was a small square white box. The air conditioning unit was humming almost silently, and it was freezing. But it was clean, and the white lights above shone brightly. "You are awfully quiet. Do you have a plan to get us out of here?" Rafael's handcuffed hands behind his back, he sat on one of the three chairs in the room. There was also a table. He had been quietly observing his Alpha, who seemed distant at a time like this. And it was time they got moving. Zayne was groggy and tired. He sat with handcuffed hands behind his back and his forehead resting on the chilly surface of the table. He did not get to sleep well on the flight, and he had that dream again. However, he could have sworn to the Divine Moon Goddess this time. He heard the white wolf whisper, 'You are close, my love.' Goddess, just thinking about it now, his pores stood at attention. Nonetheless, that had both him a

    Alpha Theodore Claude Thornton Alpha Theodore Claude Thornton got an alert, interrupting his tennis round with his elites. While some were still playing golf, others ventured to his tennis courts. Goddess, damn it, he cursed under his breath and excused himself again. He thought this would be wrapped up by now, but the scum bag Alpha escaped into TL before his men could arrive. Somebody at that airport would lose their job. Theo vented as he contacted Ivan and gave the order to shut this place down. And he dispatched more security teams to be on high alert in search of Zayne and his man. His property was on complete lockdown, and his already tightened security just got like fort knox. Aubrianne Ivanov "Wow, Aubri," Jada gushed, "Honey, you look gorgeous. Aubrianne rolled her eyes while eating, sitting on her couch, and shoving a cheese pie down her throat. She was getting a bit nervous, and Leia was prancing around. She could not understand her sudden mood change. But, Aubria

    Aubrianne Ivanov Nevertheless, there was a better time to discuss this, so Daniel shut off Cassius. It is not like they have to worry about that right now. However, he was becoming disturbed by his wolf. Also, ensuring that they stayed out of sight, a particular individual kept their eyes on a specific waiter. She would observe her mate tonight and see what he was on about. However, right now, she was staring daggers at Aubrianne as she descended the stairs like a Goddess. Reaching the bottom of the staircase, her gorgeous eyes swept across the audience, boldly meeting their gazes, a small elegant smile playing on her lips. Aubrianne gracefully placed her hand in her father's and allowed him to lead her. "Ladies and gentlemen, let's head to the great grandeur room and start tonight's dinner, shall we? The mike man spoke with a flare. The ballroom was picturesque, and so was the grandeur room. The grand chandelier added to the ambiance, just like in the ballroom. The tables wer

    Aubrianne Ivanov It was time for the father-daughter dance, and suddenly Aubrianne became emotional. Her chest rose and fell as her heart swelled. 'Leia?' Aubrianne's voice held an almost pleading tone while heavy with emotion. 'I am here.' Leia sighed and released some support for Aubrianne, giving her strength and courage as best as possible because it was emotional for her as well, but differently. Aubriannee needed to get changed, so she had excused herself, Jada in tow, and headed up the stairs to get her out of this gown and into a dress past her knees in length. Midnight blue, with a diamond-crusted lace pattern over the entire dress. And her shoes were the same material as the dress; Aubrianne looked stunning. Jada had fussed over her as they hurried from one outfit to another, and now it was time. In all of Aubrianne's childhood dreams and imagination, she never came close to what she was actually experiencing. There were all the father-daughter dances she missed out o

    Alpha Zayne Steele Zayne and Rafael came upon other wolves in three separate instances and quickly diverted. Approaching, Zayne knew he needed to get around the lake, which looked like it led to a pool area. He zoned in with his wolf eyes. Around the property, as far as his eyes could see, people were moving about, some heading to what he assumed were guesthouses on the property while others came out of others. Zayne realized they could easily blend in once they got into the property and dressed, hopefully. Nevertheless, Zayne and Rafael trek around the lake, jumping a gold-plated fence, 'seriously?' Zayne scoffed. When they reached the pool house and changed, "Ok, we need to act like we belong here.' Zayne mind-linked Rafael. They even showered and thanked the Divine Goddess for finding an iron. Well, they really acted as if they belonged. Zayne was overjoyed about the opportunity to be at least able to iron, and when he saw his outfit, he'd eyed Rafael, a huge grateful smil

    Alpha Thornton held the phone and crushed it before he could threaten Dr. Nathan. No. One thing he would never do is go at him unprepared without information. He would not further look the fool to this mere human.Plus, he did not want Ivan nor Jada to know who he was talking to, not to mention Ivan was already suspicious of him, he reasoned."Aubrianne has been kidnapped," Ivan said and took control because he knew Thornton would not be capable of thinking clearly after hearing such news.His eyes were changing from black to red, and he was about to lose control.

All the teams would be alive, not to mention Shawn's mate Kirrah."I should have surrendered. Maybe Kirrah will still be alive."

    Unshed tears swelled in Aubrianne's eyes as she rapidly blinked them away, sniffled, and rubbed her itchy nose with the back of her hand. Goddess, her mom was dead and has been for a long time. She thought she was over this. But the dam burst. Aubrianne couldn't hold it back because this dream had felt so real. Martha burst through the room just as Leia shouted to ease her humans' dismay, 'We must get back to Mother Aubrianne. Snap out of it….' Aubrianne jumped up off the bed as if it was suddenly set ablaze. It was almost like a complete leap, the same way her heart leaped out of her chest, escaping its restraints in utter joy and confusion at that moment, still slightly groggy from her nap and grappling with reality.'You fainted silly,' Leia teased."Oh Goddess, it was not a dream; is my mother alive?" she questioned carefully as if articulating to two-year-olds.

    Nevertheless, Daniela chose to listen intently. "Don't you see, all I have to do is bide my time?" Daniel expressed enthusiastically, giving hand gestures. His head tilted toward Daniela, staring into her eyes, not backing down or showing a hint of indecisiveness.No, he was certain."Wow, so you are serious about rejecting your mate?" Daniela finally asked. "Yes, I am," Daniel answered, not missing a beat almost before she finished her question."My plan is simple, sis; I would not get myself entangled in anything with anyone and simply wait." Daniela stared at her brother as if he had grown two horns. She could not help it. She snapped, "Who are you, and what did you do to my brother? Because this is not my brother I am talking to." She did not want to start calling him names, especially the fact that she thought he was a psycho.Daniel smiled almost eerily at Daniela and said, "It's me, sis."

    This was indeed overwhelming and euphoric at the same time, to say the least, for Aubrianne.Since her arrival earlier, Martha had been jolly, almost skipping through her explanations, fanciful as ever.This caused a giddiness in Leia as she listened to what she already suspected. She was wagging her tail and skipping around as if she truly knew what it was.Aubrianne hated this.
